7950 - Far Cry 3 fps dropping?

I hate to say it, but it seems to have done something...

Before I was running smoothly a long at 60fps and then it would drop to 28-30 fps for around 2 seconds which would be frustrating and make it stutter.

After enabling triple buffering...for open gl...it now runs at 60fps and has not gone below 45fps, when it does drop to 45fps it still stays very smooth. Overall it looks like this has fixed the problem. Why it has fixed the problem I'm not sure, but I'd recommend giving it a go.

How strange :D Will try it out
 
Yeah I'm not sure why ..I'm downloading RadeonPro so I can enable TB for specifically Direct X...if Open GL makes an improvement then it should be better? We shall see :D

Yer used to use RP ages ago but stopped because Fifa13 CTD and BF3 wouldn't work with sweetFX.
But I think they were both fixed ages ago and I never got around to using it again.

I can confirm SweetFX works with BF3 now... and makes it look mint. I played Metro SQR last night and it was amazing. 2560x1400 helped too

Did you get RadeonPro working? I used it but I lost my sniper cross hair when using it.
 
Does CCC's triple buffering really work on D3D?

I'd be (pleasantly) surprised if that was the case.

Am more surprised then you lol But you know what it does seem more smoother with it on??

Can we have other test this please.

It doesn't work. Just tried it in black ops. In D3D games like farcry etc you need to use D3D over rider or an alternative.
 
It does work in Farcry 3, i have tried with and without and with i get 60 FPS -55 min without i get 60-30-60-30 all the time, it does work.

Maybe not with every game but its cured Farcry 3 for me and i can prove it if you want a vid?
